Masters of Arts in betboom team Sciences and Disorders
The betboom team Sciences and Disorders Master's Program from Michigan State University will not only give you the coursework needed to learn necessary skills but will also allow you to participate in problem-based learning designed to promote critical thinking skills and leadership.
MSU's clinical training is community-based. We have a network of over 100 off-campus facilities including public schools, hospitals, nursing homes and private clinics, both here in Mid-Michigan and throughout the state, to support the clinical training of our master's students.
Our clinical supervisors are working in the field as speech-language pathologists and therefore opportunities for you to apply knowledge learned in the classroom directly to real-world clinical life is abundant. Additionally, our program offers two career-oriented tracks: Plan A is the thesis track, and Plan B is the non-thesis track. Students electing to pursue a thesis will have the opportunity to develop and conduct original research under the mentoring of faculty with substantial scholarly experience. While the non-thesis track offers options for comprehensive elective clinical coursework.
As a betboom team in the program, you will be able to use the resources of MSU - a world leader in research with nationally ranked academic units, impressive libraries, a beautiful large campus, a pioneering record in sustainability, exciting athletics and an impressively diverse academic community. Becoming a Spartan is to gain entry into one of the largest and most productive group of alumni networks in the world.
The M.A. program in CSD offers exciting opportunities to learn from and work with internationally renowned scientists in the fields of betboom team sciences and disorders. Our master's program is designed to attract excellent students from diverse backgrounds and train them to become clinicians and leaders in the field of betboom team sciences and disorders.
